Olivier Rieu, PGE 1997: a career driven by adaptability and purpose
A graduate of GEM’s PGE program in 1997, Olivier Rieu has built a career shaped by international experience, entrepreneurship, and a strong sense of purpose.
An international and entrepreneurial journey
Born in Provence, he spent a nomadic childhood between Tunisia, Algeria, and India, following his father’s assignments as a petrochemical engineer, and developed a strong ability to adapt from an early age.
After GEM, where he specialized in entrepreneurship, he began his career at Procter & Gamble, first in Marseille and then in Paris. Over eight years, he gained solid expertise in management, strategy, and business development. This experience proved decisive, particularly during his time in Guadeloupe, where he built up an operation that had grown to a team of 50 employees by the time he left.
Turning towards impact and multi-family office
At 31, he made a strategic shift toward wealth management. After completing a specialized program in Bordeaux, he moved to Stockholm, where he founded his own firm, supporting French expatriates with cross-border challenges. He later joined Equance in 2013 before relocating to Madrid in 2016 to further develop the business.
In 2020, he co-founded Kimpa Impact, an innovative multi-family office combining wealth advisory, family governance, and environmental and social impact.
Based in Madrid, Paris, and Marseille, the firm now advises around thirty families, with €3.3 billion in assets under advice.
Committed to entrepreneurial freedom and meaningful work, Olivier continues to grow his business from Madrid, aiming to balance financial performance, responsibility, and the transfer of values to future generations.
